This has been an exciting few months, as Free Tutoring Online is starting to see chapters open at campuses around the US (you can see a full list in the "For Tutors" section of the confirmed clubs so far).
For me, this has been a scary time, because it means stepping outside my comfort zone and working to convince other people that Free Tutoring Online can be a huge asset in their community and they can make a difference. I'm so excited to see that people are embracing this idea and signing up to join! I've been to courses and programs on different campuses, but since I'm not in college yet, I don't think I quite understand how much of a sense of community there is and a willingness to get involved and get things done. It has me really excited about the college application process (okay, I'm also exhausted and overwhelmed...) and realizing how important the concept of an innovative and engaged community is. If you are a college or high school student wanting to get involved with Free Tutoring Online and you don't see your campus chapter listed, please contact me to start one of your own. There are so, so many students who need help and support learning STEM subjects, and even a few hours of your time can make a huge difference.
